Queen Silvia looks younger these days; she seems so joyful and happy; and beautiful, as usual. Her purple suit with the green scarf is beautiful and fits her perfectly. The teal coat is very flattering. The burgundy and black suit is also nice. King Carl Gustaf looks especially animated at this event and his smiles are a welcomed sight. He is quite handsome and I think Prince Carl Phillip favors him.
